I Found Myself Falling... Not For The Right Thing Either.

37: Mystery Girl and Shopping

The microwave binged letting us know that the food was done. Instead of pulling it out like a good person I stayed in my place and yelled out loud.

“Food’s done!” I was too lazy to get up and get the food today. The couch was so much more comfy.

“Go get it!” Jake told me, walking down the stairs along with his friends. My eyes stayed longer than necessary on a certain one, smirking in return.

I put on the bet puppy dog face I could make and said, “You’re closer.” He huffed and shook his head, walking the rest of the way down the stairs and into the living room. He walked right past me and my hopeful puppy dog pout deepened.

“Now, you’re closer.” He told me, flopping onto the chair opposite of where I was laying on the couch.

“That’s not very nice.” I told him as the guys followed and all sat down, all except for one.

“I’ll go get it for you.” My eyes widened at the kind gesture and trust me; I wasn’t the only one surprised.

Kent was too focused on his phone and whoever he was texting to look up, but knowing him, he would’ve had the same look as everyone else. The one where the jaw is dropped, mouth wide open in shock and the eyebrows furrowed in confusion, eyes clearly asking, “What the fuck?”

I just stayed quiet. I think I knew why Craig was doing, trying to show everyone slowly that we were together, but by the looks of it they all thought it was weird.

“Who possessed Craig?” Jared joked, throwing his head back as he laughed along with Ian and Robert. I laughed awkwardly, what else was I supposed to do? I hadn’t a clue! I noticed Jake’s eyes narrow slightly as he watched Craig enter with my bowl of pasta that I had put in the microwave for lunch, but he quickly forgot about us when there was a knock on the front door and Katie entered.

“Thanks.” I said to Craig, grabbing the bowl from him. He winked quickly. All I wanted to do was grab him and kiss him senseless for the kind gesture, but everyone in the room was keeping e from doing so, so I just watched him sit down on the other end of the couch I was sitting on, making my sit up rather than lay across the whole thing.

Katie’s eyes were wide and bright as she raced into the room after taking off her shoes, jumping into my lap. Luckily I was able to keep my bowl of pasta out of her way when she dove.

“What are you doing?!” I shrieked as she landed on top of me, knocking the air out of me a bit.

“Are you ready yet?” She asked, turning around and grabbing a piece of pasta from my bowl. I scowled, pulling it from her reach.

“Obviously not.” I muttered, stabbing my fork into the bowl and pulling it out to shove the delicious sauce covered pieces into my mouth.

“Well hurry up.” She muttered, rolling off of me and onto her feet. “I’m grabbing something to eat.” She mumbled, walking off. I was too busy to notice what was going on as I ate my food, but when I felt Craig sitting next to me I realized everyone must have left.

“You’ve got some food on your face.” He mumbled, leaning forward to lick the access sauce off of my chin. I let a giggle leave my lips and I pulled back from him, wiping off the saliva he left. “Delicious.” He muttered, smirking down at me.

“What? Me or the sauce?” I challenged.

“The sauce of course.” He told me, laughing. I frowned and stuck my finger into the bowl, pulling out some sauce left on the side of the dish. I brought it to my lips and smeared it across them as if it were lipgloss. I tilted my head to the side and bit my lip as I watched Craig’s eyes quickly go from playfulness to lust as he gazed down at me.
